About Us

Kent School of Dance is a place for dancing, fun, friends, learning, and self-growth.  A place where kids of all ages can come and build a self-confidence, self-esteem, and teamwork.  We have been instructing dance in Yakima since Bonnie Kent moved her studio from Sunnyside in August of 1964!  Here at Kent School of Dance, we teach the fundamentals of dance in many styles so our dancers can be well rounded in the performing arts.  Our first priority is the student.  We want everyone to have a positive experience at our studio.  Let us share our passion of love for dance with your future dancer in a fun, but structured, positive environment.  Our students learn not only movements to music, but what it means to express oneself in many ways.  Dancing is known to lower stress, not to mention is great physical activity.  Our goal at KSD is to build dancers that are confident, proud, happy, supportive, self-determined, and strong.  Our dancers know they are capable of taking on anything that their heart tells them to pursue.  Dance offers many useful skills for everyday life!
